Instrumentation, Electrical and P&ID Elements Matching

Instrumentation, Electrical and P&ID element matching uses the following criteria:

• If element data from the target database (for example, Schematics) had previously been imported into AVEVA Instrumentation, Electrical or P&ID, the Dabacon references will have been stored in there. If available these will be used as the first attempt to match.

• If AVEVA Instrumentation, Electrical or P&ID data have previously been imported into the target database, and the integration UDA was available, the AVEVA Instrumentation, Electrical or P&ID database references will have been stored in the UDA. If available these will be used as the second attempt to match.

  Note: If the UDA is not available this step will be skipped. Refer to Integration UDA Definition for further information.

• For Instrumentation, if the first two attempts have not generated a match, the third attempt will match on the default criteria of Tag or Loop as appropriate.

  Instruments from AVEVA Instrumentation can be matched to Dabacon types Instrument, Equipment and Sub-equipment. This gives the capability for example to separate instruments into inline, offline mounted and offline non-mounted.
